Abstract

An apparatus for high current DC conductor termination. The apparatus includes a base, an insulated terminal projection, first and second opposing connectors, and first and second bus bars. The base is securable to an electrical device. The insulated terminal projection extends from the base and has first and second opposite sides. The first and second opposing connectors are mounted on the opposite sides respectively of the terminal projection, the first and second opposing connectors being substantially in line and operable to connect to first and second conductors respectively. The first and second bus bars are connected to the first and second connectors and extend closely adjacent each other inside the base and are operable to connect to the electrical device for electrical current conduction.
